PDF 417 Length 1, Length 2 Programming Instructions
If PDF417 Length Control is set to Fixed-Length decoding, this feature specifies PDF417 first
fixed length. If PDF417 Length Control is set to Variable-Length decoding, this feature
specifies the minimum label length.
NOTE
This tag is only valid for units with a model id that supports PDF.
Length 1 is the minimum label length if in variable length mode, or
the f
irst fixed length if in fixed length mode. Length 2 is the maxi-
mum label length if in variable length mode, or the second fixed
length if in f
ixed length mode. Length includes the barcode's data
characters only. Any value > 2710 will be considered to be 2710.
To set this feature:
1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT Programming Mode bar code.
2. Scan the barcode,
Set PDF 417 Length 1 or Set PDF 417 Length 2 below. You’ll need to
cover any unused barcodes on this and the facing page to ensure that the scanner reads
only th
e bar code you intend to scan.
3. Scan the appropriate digits from the
Keypad in Appendix C that represent the desired
label length. The selectable range for this option is 00
01 to 2710. Pad all numbers with
leading zeros to yield a four-digit entry (0001-2710).
4. Complete the programming sequence by scanning
the ENTER/EXIT Programming
Mode bar code.
